20 Years Of Golden Hits From Around The World
Various Artists (2 CD Set)

Description

This 2CD set is a richly curated survey of international pop’s golden era, drawing together landmark recordings that transcended borders and topped charts worldwide. Domenico Modugno’s exuberant ‘Nel Blu Dipinto Di Blu (Volare)’ sits alongside the bossa nova elegance of Stan Getz and Astrud Gilberto’s ‘Girl From Ipanema,’ while Kyu Sakamoto’s emotionally resonant ‘Sukiyaki’ represents one of the rare Japanese recordings to conquer the English-speaking charts. Harry Belafonte, Connie Francis, Eddie Fisher, and the New Vaudeville Band’s jaunty ‘Winchester Cathedral’ round out a collection that captures the remarkable variety and warmth of mid-twentieth-century popular music from across the globe. An essential listen for fans of classic international pop…
